I met a girl named Sveta who lives in Magadan a little more then a month ago through the Yahoo Personals (please don't smite me for this since I am new here).
Well we were e-mailing pretty well with only minor issues of my mail getting to her. She never asked for money,nor confessed her undying love for me which I thought was a good sign. Recently though I have not been able to get any of my messages through to her e-mail account. She uses a ukrtop.com account. I went as far as opening my own account on ukrtop.com to send her messages with hope that they would arrive. Now I know she can be busy, but I have not been able to hear from her in almost two weeks. She doesn't have a phone in her flat since her parents had it recently build. I didn't have a chance to learn her last name or address yet either. All I know is what she looks like from the several pictures she sent me, that she works for a bookeeper and does some modeling in her town. Would anyone have any advice on how I could try to contact her beside sending e-mails?
Thanks in advance
Michael

i think it's pretty obvious that she's not interested in you. if she was truly interested, she'd be emailing you regularly. and think about it. if she met you online, she's probably met a bunch of others as well.
there are many, many fish in the pond. i think it's a mistake to focus on one, until you've met her and spent significant time together. if she ends up emailing you, that's great, but i wouldn't hold my breath. if you do anything extraordinary to contact her, it's just going to make you look desperate, imo.

Thanks for your thoughts, you may very well be right. Yet one thing I did fail to mention was that the last time I heard from her she asked me why I stopped writing to her and if I was mad at her. Which obviously isn't the case it’s the e-mail account she has that continued to not accept my messages. I agree I do not want to do anything to look the fool. Yet I at least want her to know that I am not mad at her and give her the choice of continuing to talk with me. Her e-mailing pattern was twice during the week and at least once on the weekends if this makes any difference or not.

Send her another mail, get a read reciept for it. Theres many reasons she may not reply, yes she may not reply again.
A month is a long time to get to know someone and then have them disappear, its bound to make you think and maybe even hurt a bit, the letters between Irina and me were advanced after a month and we were growing close by then.
Search the site, find out about where others met people, pick it up again and off ya go.
Do you need a yahoo username to access yahoo personals?

I'm not sure Lep, I think you can join Yahoo personals seperately.
